Dealing with a noisy neighbor

[Great-Kazoo]

No sir... I live in a detached house.

Oh believe me, I am...



Come on now... A little ban never hurt anyone...

You still claiming it was a hammer used on you?

OP you must also consider how you are perceiving the noise that you hear. It is very clear that this issue is beyond the noise, and likely both neighbors are so sensitive to anything produced by the other, that what would have been a normal/acceptable noise level before this all started, is probably infuriating now.

Sit down and actually ask yourself f being able to hear the bass is an issue because hearing it bothers you, or because you perceive it as a sleight? I remember being bothered by a basketball being dribbled 100 yards away across the street. Sounds ridiculous, but it was 2am on a Wednesday and while I was laying there trying to sleep it was all I could hear. Each bounce sounded louder and louder in my head as I became more angry.

Same thing with my neighbors drinking outside at 11pm the other night. I love having neighbors that aren't total trash for once, but it was a Monday night and I could hear them over our fan. I went outside and confronted them. They shriveled up like cowards and pretended the guy in the next yard, shinning a spot light in their faces and asking how long they planned to be up screaming wasn't there. Now they think I am a dick. I've been meaning to go talk to them and explain I only cared because it was a week night and my kid was sleeping. I haven't gotten around to it.

Anyway, before you go running off to the police, try to consider the ACTUAL noise levels, and how it may be perceived by each side. If you leave each other alone for long enough, you'll both probably grow numb and forget why you were upset in the first place. That is unless one, or both, of you can't see the situation for what it is and continues to be a passive aggressive dickhole.

Good luck.

All I can say is WOW..... there is a lot of bitching and whining here when no one other than the OP has any idea what the situation actually is.

I say the OP should have a BBQ and several of us show up to actually judge the noise level; either that or the OP should borrow a 2000W sub and play a continual test tone about 15 hours a day. Either way sounds like fun to me.

No no no..... If you're gonna go to war with the guy you go to war the right way.....

LOL, I like where you're going but if he actually had some bass in his voice you could hear it in another room. Where's the techno dance remix?

I already posted it up above.

In that case I'd have to go with the Geto Boys.

Maybe some of you should look at this from the "noisy neighbors" perspective. Instead of him calling the police or complaining to the HOA he turns up his music... and he's the bad guy?

Fuck him, I'll take the word of someone I don't know on the forum over him any day. How would the forum be if we started assuming that anyone here that asks for advice is actually the one that's in the wrong?
